Blues In The Night

My mama done tol' me

When I was in kneepants

My mama done tol' me, son!

A woman'll sweet talk

And give ya the big eye

But when the sweet talkin's done

A woman's a two-face

A worrisome thing who'll leave ya t' sing the blues in the night

Now the rain's a-fallin'

Hear the train a-callin'

Whoo-ee (my mama done tol' me)

Hear that lonesome whistle

Blowin' 'cross the trestle

Whoo-ee (my mama done tol' me)

A whoo-ee-duh whoo-ee

Ol' clickety clack's a-echoin' back the blues in the night (hum)

My mama was right, there's blues in the night
